I have to admit, I totally didn’t invent this, I just took it from the street style pages and made it my own. With fashion season in full swing, I really do find myself just as much in awe of the saucy, stylish ladies on the streets as I do of the collections themselves. Pssttt.. you can re-live New York Fashion Week with my cheat sheet here. To getthe volume and swing of a lob withouthaving to chop off those precious inches, just tie your scarf around your neck and over your hair. I have to admit that I’ve been doing this a lot lately, it’s a super polished remedy to all of your last-minute hair woes. I’m not letting the Seventies trend get out my grasp anytime soon and I’ve given it a polished edge with my New Chic khaki green sleeveless coat. My favorite thing about this piece is the way that it swings when you walk. My friends always tell me I have a ‘Rachel strut’ (cringe), so at least I will be able to take full advantage of its swing power.This high neck lace top and denim shorts is my Summer go-to combo. I’m no Einstein here, you really can’t go wrong with denim. And I paired my DKNY tote with a classic pair of heeled sandals.

Speaking of Einstein, the fashion blogger boffins at ‘IFB’ chose my NYFW piece as one of their best of the week. If you fancy exploring more of the fashion-blog-o-sphere, check out these beauties below:
